Thank you Ericdkirk!

for the fast response and apparently the solution - I have to say the instructions gave me a bit of a pause, but after looking and re-reading I realized it was just the addition of the old location for applications that was needed . . . maemo extras - edit - add chinook to distribution line - click ok and perform "little dance of joy"

Thanks again, much appreciated . . . .now, if you could help the GPS in the little tablet find it's ***** with both hands . . . . . .
